Title: Vectorize this for me?
Post by: Trimoor on July 21, 2004, 06:01:37 pm

I have been unable to make anything but bizzar useless shapes in Illustrator, so could someone kindly vectorize this image for me? :D

As you can see, it's very simple and shouldn't take more than a few minutes for anyone who can work with Illustrator.

If you could save it in as many vector formats you can, that would be great.

Thanks!! ;D

Here you go. (http://www.bombaci.org/tom/images/rgb_triangle.ai) Just change the ".ps" extension to ".ai" if it changes on download.

Why does that happen?  It drives me insane.

The Illustrator file format is actually a varitaion of the Adobe Encapsulated PostScirpt (EPS) format. When your computer reads the header, it sees the file as a Postscript file and appends the file extension.

You should say, that it's IE making that change when saving...

Damn IE....

You use IE?:o
Yikes, get a real browser!

I use Firefox.  It's free.  It's great.  Get it. ;D

I also have to make a plug for Firefox.  Started using it two or so weeks ago and I'm never going back to using IE.  Gotta love tabbed browsing.
